Making Custom Concrete Pavers using Cardboard! HomeMadeModern 2022-12-13 | I used cardboard to make silicone molds for custom concrete pavers. A hot glue gun and drill were the only power tools needed to make this concrete patio comprised of custom geometric concrete patio pavers. Cardboard is a great design tool and I hot glued pieces together before covering them in drywall mud. From there I poured 2 part silicone to make reusable concrete molds for the pavers.Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyeda Mold Star 30 silicone smooth-on.com/products/mold-star-30this video is sponsored by Ryobi Ryobi Hot Glue Gunhomedepot.com/p/RYOBI-ONE-18V-Cordless-Full-Size-Glue-Gun-Tool-Only-with-3-General-Purpose-Glue-Sticks-P305/300335930?MERCH=REC-_-rv_gm_pip_rr-_-308412266-_-300335930-_-N&mtc=SEM-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_007_ORGANIZATION-NA-NA-NA-DSA-2998358-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-NA&cm_mmc=SEM-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_007_ORGANIZATION-NA-NA-NA-DSA-2998358-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-NA-71700000101062026-58700008077109945-39700073445997553&gclid=Cj0KCQiA4uCcBhDdARIsAH5jyUn-0X5hlx3CI578l0gV5fzzu9zUNj62m0zZp-IDci9JIkvGcluEpp8aAvJXEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.dsRyobi HP drill and Driverhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgB0For additional projects and information check out our website: http://www.homemade-modern.com
Table that weighs less than 19lbs | DIY Polycarbonate Furniture HomeMadeModern 2022-12-06 | I made a super lightweight table or desk that weighs less than 19lbs. I used 25mm polycarbonate panels that are typically used for greenhouses. I cut and shaped the panels with basic wood working tools like a circular saw and palm router. I poured total boat epoxy into the ends to make the polycarbonate ends solid. I discovered that total boat 2-part epoxy is great for glueing together polycarbonate. In this video I will show how to cut polycarbonate panels, how to sand poly carbonate panels, and how to seal the ends of polycarbonate panels with epoxy.

Go to establishedtitles.com/homemademodernto get your gifts now and help support this channel. and use the code HomeMadeModern to get an additional 10% off. I made a table entirely out of epoxy! I used total boat thick set fathom to make this modern cafe style table. I used a CNC to cut MDF pieces that I then used to make a silicone mold. This is not really a true DIY project even though I did DIY it myself. The silicone molds are expensive and I plan on making a few hundred tables to get value out of the time and material cost. I drew the designs on illustrator and then exported as DXF files for easel software which is the free tool I use for CNC projects. I actually kind of like how the MDF prototypes look so I think I will turn that into an actual table. if you don't have a CNC you could do a similar style table with a jigsaw. Here is a video where I did just that.youtu.be/VF8YUzHgJK8Sponsored affiliate links to the products I use:Total Boat ThickSet Fathom Deep Pour Clear Casting Epoxy totalboat.com/product/thickset-fathom-deep-pour-clear-casting-epoxyRyobi Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher 18-volt 5-incheshttps://shopstyle.it/l/bEDjtRyobi Jigsawhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgAZRyobi Circular Sawhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBQRyobi Palm Routerhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBURyobi HP drill and Driverhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgB0Ryobi Orbital Sanderhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBXFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyeda For additional projects and information check out our website: http://www.homemade-modern.com

Bending Steel into a Chair HomeMadeModern 2022-06-10 | I bent some steel rod and made a hairpin chair legs for a modern outdoor chair comprised of steel and cedar stained with CABOT Solid Color Acrylic Stain and Sealer in Pewter Gray. This is an easy metal working project and I hope this hairpin leg catches on the way hairpin table legs have. I used cedar 2x6 scrap for the seat and backrest and I used my Kreg Pocket Hole Jig to join the seat pieces together. This video is sponsored by Cabot Stain I am collaborating with them on Cabot’s 2022 Trend of the Year: Creating an Outdoor Oasis! For me that means building a new chair for my outdoor office using cabot’s Solid Color Acrylic Stain and Sealer in Pewter Gray!For the wood I used Western Red Cedar that I found from realcedar.comYour one-stop resource for Western Red Cedar which isNature's most beautiful & versatile building material especially for outdoor projects!Learn more about Cabot stain here:cabotstain.com/products/product/Solid-Color-Acrylic-Siding-Stain.html?utm_source=influencer&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=TOTY-2022&utm_content=hmFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyedaMore about Cabot's Trend of the Year!In 2022, Cabot will announce its first-ever outdoor trend of the year! To help build awareness, create a project to highlight how outdoor spaces have become an extension of your indoor space. Use this project as a way to showcase your personal “outdoor” style, whether it’s to relax, dine or work. The ‘trend of the year’ will use Cabot Stain in Pewter Grey as an anchoring color, but feel free to use other complementary colors as well. Earning the title for 2022 are outdoor workspaces, which have rapidly grown in popularity due to people spending more time at home. Outdoor workspaces offer a versatile solution for people in need of a designated space for working from home, crafting, doing homework and much more. “Our first annual Trend of the Year seeks to provide inspiration with on-trend project ideas using Cabot stain to help make the most of living spaces,” said Jose Gonzalez, Associate Brand Manager, Cabot. “We know our customers enjoy and value time spent outside and take immense pride in creating outdoor spaces that extend the livability of their homes. Cabot offers products to not only protect exterior wood but to help beautify outdoor spaces using wood stain colors and opacity that suits your style.” Cabot brand’s Pewter Gray, a balance of weathered gray and comforting neutral, is the anchoring color used in elements of all three Trend of the Year projects. The color offers relaxed refinement to outdoor living spaces and connects nature and beauty of aged wood textures. Notes on using rags with wood stain:The rag is just a way to control the amount of stain applied in a way that is appropriate to the project size and use. We use a rag to remove the excess stain on furniture projects but we would not do that on deck or siding projects in the interest of time and because those projects are typically viewed from a greater distance. This stain is acrylic so there aren’t flammability issues with the rags.Product Links:Purdy Brushes - I highly recommend these for wood finishes!amzn.to/3NNPY1SKreg Straight Edge Guide https://shopstyle.it/l/bCgAP Kreg 720 Pocket Hole Jighttps://shopstyle.it/l/bHZh8For additional projects and information check out our website:http://www.homemade-modern.com
Concrete Floor Over Tile | EASY Self Leveling Concrete Floor HomeMadeModern 2022-06-03 | Pouring self leveling concrete over linoleum tile with a DIY concrete dispenser made from a trashcan. In this video I show how to self level a floor using self leveler cement. I resurfaced concrete floors with a skim coat of concrete before but doing it bucket by bucket was difficult and exhausting. The trash can on wheels method was suggested to me by followers on instagram. I used Quikrete Self-Leveling Floor Resurfacer concrete mix and poured a skim coat over the top of the existing linoleum type tiles. I did NOT get this right the first time so I hope you learn from my mistakes but we are very happy with the final concrete floor skim coat. This video is sponsored by Extra Space Storage.

Making an Outdoor Chair out of a 2x6 HomeMadeModern 2022-05-31 | I made a DIY outdoor lounge chair out of a 2x6 using just 3 basic power tools. This is a really fast and easy DIY furniture project. I used a western red cedar 2x6 because it holds up against elements but a cheaper softwood could be used it just wouldn’t last as long. A circular saw, drill, and orbital sander are the only essential power tools for this project but I used my Kreg 720 pocket hole jig so that I could hide the screws. I think. of this design as a modern take on a modern take on a Adirondack chair. I cut 2x6 boards to 36" for the seat, 30" for the back, and 18" for the legs before drawing a diagonal line 1.5" in to cut triangular pieces. I made this design up on the spot and these lengths can be adjusted 4-10" in either direction. I stained the cedar with CABOT Solid Color Acrylic Stain and Sealer in Pewter Gray and used a Purdy roller and brush to apply it.This video is sponsored by Kreg and Ryobi!

Epoxy Resin and Water Balloons HomeMadeModern 2022-03-09 | I poured epoxy resin over a box of water balloons to make a translucent piece of epoxy furniture. Water balloons covered in epoxy resin seems pretty random but I wanted to experiment with two different things. I wanted to know if the room temperature water would act as a heat sink that would allow me to pour deeper layers of epoxy without it going exothermic. I was also interested in using the forms to reduce the amount of epoxy needed for this side table while creating a nature inspired form factor. I recently went to antelope canyon and was inspired by the water carved sandstone rock formations. For the epoxy resin I used Total Boat ThickSet Fathom Deep Pour Clear Casting Epoxy and I polished the epoxy with my Ryobi Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher.Check out my other recent epoxy and broken glass video here:youtu.be/rFV1iRIjxUo#epoxy #maker #designThe Jimmy DiResta Icepick:imakeny.com/products/diresta-ice-pickSponsored affiliate links to the products I use:Total Boat ThickSet Fathom Deep Pour Clear Casting Epoxy totalboat.com/product/thickset-fathom-deep-pour-clear-casting-epoxyRyobi Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher 18-volt 5-incheshttps://shopstyle.it/l/bEDjtRyobi Rotary Toolhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bEUTUKreg Straight Edge Guidehttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgAPKreg Pocket Hole Jig https://shopstyle.it/l/bEDkaRyobi Circular Sawhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBQRyobi Palm Routerhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBURyobi HP drill and Driverhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgB0Ryobi Orbital Sanderhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBXFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyeda For additional projects and information check out our website: http://www.homemade-modern.com
Making Furniture out of BROKEN GLASS HomeMadeModern 2022-03-01 | I am making furniture out of broken glass and epoxy resin. Recycling glass into furniture is something I am interested in for 2 reasons. 1. It can serve as an aggregate to reduce the amount of epoxy needed to make translucent pieces. 2. I sometimes break glass for some of my concrete molds and this gives me a way to recycle that waste. A bonus is that the glass acts as sort of a heat sink and I can pour the epoxy resin deeper without fear of it overheating. This table looks like it was made out of translucent concrete and weighs about 45 lbs. I saved all the broken glass I created from other mold making projects and used it as a glass aggregate for casting this piece of epoxy furniture. I made a positive prototype out of MDF that I used to make a negative silicone mold. I used total boat deep set fathom epoxy resin and it came out great.Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyeda Sponsored affiliate links to the products I use:Total Boat ThickSet Fathom Deep Pour Clear Casting Epoxy totalboat.com/product/thickset-fathom-deep-pour-clear-casting-epoxyRyobi Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher 18-volt 5-incheshttps://shopstyle.it/l/bEDjtKreg Portable Cross Cuthttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgALKreg Straight Edge Guidehttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgAPKreg Pocket Hole Jig https://shopstyle.it/l/bEDkaRyobi Circular Sawhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBQRyobi Palm Routerhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBURyobi HP drill and Driverhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgB0Ryobi Orbital Sanderhttps://shopstyle.it/l/bCgBXstackable sifting traysamzn.to/3HyWWDCFor additional projects and information check out our website: http://www.homemade-modern.com

We worked with Benjamin Moore Paint to transform this garage into a DIY ed art gallery and studio. After some light demo to the existing workshop cabinets we got out our sprayer and painted the stucco with Benjamin Moore Regal Select in Simply White. The sprayer worked well on the stucco but we switched to rollers for the plywood walls. The concrete was pretty stained so we painted the garage floors with Benjamin Moor Floor & Patio Paint. For the accent furniture pieces we went with Benjamin Moore Aura in Eccentric Lime with a satin finish.Sponsored by Benjamin Moore#BenjaminMoore #SeeTheLove #SponsoredFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/benjaminuyeda This gallery was commissioned by Alex Maceda you can see her work here: instagram.com/alexmacedastudioFor additional projects and information check out our website: http://www.homemade-modern.com

Making a Custom Katana Sword and Axe for under $50 HomeMadeModern 2021-09-07 | I wanted a to find a good axe and sword to use as a machete under $50. I bought a low cost axe and sword and customized them! Hand made blades by experts will always have greater quality than mass produced cheap ones but not everyone has the budget for one-off craftsmanship. I personally also find that I am more likely to use something as a tool if I don't see it as precious. I bought a small katana and an axe that are serviceable enough for my weekly use out in Joshua tree and then modified them into tools I am proud to have on display.

The Fastest Way to Install a Mailbox? | DIY Speedruns HomeMadeModern 2021-08-03 | What is the fastest and easiest way to install a mailbox using concrete?
